This is a universal font that can be used for both headings and paragraphs, thanks to the customized kerning for bold and thin style. In the thin style, the kerning is more sparse, in the bold style it is more dense. This allows you to immediately use a bold style in large headlines and posters, and a thin style in small texts and paragraphs. This is very convenient and you don't need to think about setting up kerning.
